Didn't see in the thread yet, but has anyone done Mammoth and Master or the other 2? Kinda wondering what the end reward is like on those.
Yeah, linking doesn't seem to do anything at all for bonus SP. At R47 a 5-star GAed leve gives 7500-8000~ regardless of how many links. It seems like links might give a slight sp boost per mob, but I'd need to get some concrete numbers to prove that.
Getting to be pretty sure that SP bonuses at the end are greater for leves in your jobs home city. Either that, or Grid leves just give way more across the board.
Would be easy to test for somebody with a staggered party, but I duo as Lnc/Arc so both our hometowns are grid ;x
Grid just gives more in general it seems. My friend is from U'ldah and he gets the same rewards as I do, and I'm from Grid. We try and always do all of the available leves there. Limsa seems to give just a bit more than Ul'dah also. I think it's probably part of their incentive to get players to the other cities.
I havent noticed much of a difference in final SP between cities, but Gird leves are 100x easier than Uldah ones. Its amazing how different they are.
